Legal Issues We Help High Net Worth Individuals With
Every divorce in the Bay Area is different. However, our highly qualified team is ready to assist you with some of the major issues involved in divorce cases, including:
Property Division
Property division can be one of the most contentious issues involved in high-net-worth divorce cases. When you have more at stake, there may be more conflict-related to how to fairly divide it. California’s community property rules may put your business or professional interests on the line. You may have complex premarital or postnuptial agreements that may be in dispute. High-net-worth divorce cases may also involve allegations of hiding assets.
Our divorce lawyers regularly work with business owners, entrepreneurs, startup companies, investors, and other professionals. We can help you accurately evaluate your business and sort out complex financial arrangements. We have ample experience dividing retirement accounts, stock options, and investment portfolios. We can also help untangle partnership interests.
Spousal and Child Support
If you and your spouse have disparate incomes or earning capacities, spousal support may be necessary to bridge the gap between you two. You need a knowledgeable Berkeley family lawyer who is familiar with California’s spousal support laws and can use this information to advocate for your interests.
Child support matters for high-net-worth couples are usually more complex than with other families because the general guidelines may not fully account for your situation. Additionally, you may worry about how to cover additional expenses, such as:
Private school tuition
College tuition
A vehicle for your child
Trusts
Custodial accounts
Let us provide our expert assistance to help you.
Child Custody and Visitation
Our expertise also covers custody matters, including:
Co-parenting and parenting plans
Visitation rights
Move-away disputes
Multijurisdictional litigation
International travel disputes
We take great pride in helping our clients navigate the confusing maze of high-net-worth divorce in the Bay Area with confidence and success. Our dedicated team will help solve complex financial and custody disputes in the most advantageous way possible.
